ted in his hotel (?) Now listen to the
sickening and disgusting explanation
he made Of the coffee business in 1880,
when we had occasion to stick it at
him. Here's how he tried to slink
out of it then:
"Siuce there has been so much said
about coffee, we will give the true
facts. During the last two years of
the late war, we were proprietor Of
several stage lines running from Phil
lipsburg to Clearfield, and one to Cur.
wensville, also proprietor of hotel at
Phillipsburg, terminus Of the rail.
road. Passengers took dinner at the
hotel before taking the stage. During
that time there were many soldiers
who we're returning home on leave oil
absence and other causes, and frequent.
ly some Of the soldiers were without
funds, and we, the proprietor of the
hotel and stage lines would always
feed those without money the same as
those who had the money to pay, and
many times furnished them with a
lunch and good strong coffee to carry
them through, besides giving them free
transportations on the stage lines. Thi'
is the cause of our notoriety. We
were only waiting all this time for oul
neighbor to give the facts, but as hi
did not, and wanted to make politica
capital out of it by so industiiously
harping on the coffee business, W
deemed it our duty to give facts in tn
case"
The question now remains, in tn
light of your double confession, wheI
were you lying-in 1880 or in 1887
1t is a matter of little consequence, t
be sure, since you have lied, but
might be well to state when.

OUR POLICY.

The Richmond TINES is closing the
wears record with a result that IL
gratifying to its sponsors In thai
the paper has won the respect OF the
community as a truthful organ OF an
honest public opinion, and just such a
journal as the people of Virginia need.
II is not the exponent Of a single indi-
yidual's opinion, or Of any particular SET
OF men, but the voice of all patriotic
citizens, who believe in fostering a
healthy public spirit and cultiyating the
ideas that suit our advanced civilization.
We have criticised politicians when we
could show that they were doing wrong,
and endeayored to show to the working
men, calmly and dispassionately, The
errors that they Lave sometimes been led
into. When a local idea calls for pro-
lection" the TIMES will explain the
fallacy of a theory that was i~naugurated
long aso in the interest of New England
manufacturers, mud is entirely out OF date
to-day.
On the debt question we urged a set
Element of the debt by the State in order
to restore the reputation of Virginia that
she might rival her sister States in OBJ
tanning the capital and emigration to de-
velop her resources 1t was not aquestion
Of advocating creditors, but one that be-
longed entirely to the character and
honor of our people which we cannot af-
ford to trifle with.
1t is certainly the first duty OF a daily
newspaper to give a correct report Of the
passing events and to criticise them in
the honest and unprejudiced spirit OF
truth, and though the TINES will not do
ANYTHING to mar the harmony OF the
party upon which the safety of the State
depends, at any time when it is opposed
TO such a set Of men as were arrayed
against us a short time ago, yet we will
certainly point out the mistakes made by
Democrats as well as those made by Re
publicans when the harm is evident, and
public opinion ought to be brought TO
bear on all abuses.

The patent laws were Of course intend
ed to offer a premium to inventive gen.
ius and thereby to benefit both the peo-
pie and the inventors, but there have
been abuses and gross tyranny in patent
legislation.
Mr.. George has introduced into the
Senate a bill to abolish one Of these
abuses under the patent law aud thus to
protect innocent purchasers OF patented
articles. That the evil at which the bill
is aimed is not a trivial one is shown by
this statement of Mr.. George:
"As far as | can learn there.have been
much wrong and injustice done under
the patent laws by suits against men

4 Prophecy of Evil.

Germany is now discussing the authen
ITCHY Of a prophecy attributed TO a friar
in a Bavarian convent, who lived in the
Seventeenth century, as IL completely
f%oreshadowed the strange complication oil
evils with which Germany is now threat
ened. The effect Of the prophecy is al
leged to be that q ~IIohenzollern prince
would unite all the German states under
one crown; that he would live 10 be W;
that he would be predeceased by his son,
and that the successor 10 the throne
would have the use Of bu. one hand. Ac-
cording to his prophecy the emperor
would have still five years to live, and the
doctors say it is possible the crown prince
may live for four. As to the rest, Prince
WiiIiem has had r shrivelled arm from
his birth. II is said that documentary
proof Of this remarkable yaticination can
be produced, but it is not stated that any
one has seen it.-New York Tribune.

THE LOST STRIKE.

The Reading railroad strikers under
the dictation of the Knights OF Labor
have made the mistake of attempting 10
dictate to the company, a common
carrier bound to deliver freight under
certain contracts. The dictation seems
to be ia the line of saying to whom coal
shall be delivered. That is the source OF
the difficulty, and not a question Of wages
A few men were discharged not because
OF a disagreement about wages, but be-
cause they objected to the people to
whom coal was delivered. This causes a
strike in another quarter, and thousands
OF working men ale thrown out of en-
ployment at this hard season of the year
in order to enforce an idea in which they
do not seem to be interested.
Besides the folly of making a number
of men subserye such a purpose is the adj
ditional folly Of putting so many men on
a strike at such time of the year. We
are merely arguing from the working
mans standpoint, and wish to cite the
fact that if there were any sense in it, OF
any good to the laborers, they might
have waited for a more favorable oppoc
tunity. 1t is a clear case of the policy oil
that personal and selfish rule which
would make thousands of people sufel
the risks of cold and starvation merely
to maintain a power which has been fol
some time rapidly weakening because o.
its fundamental errors.
The labor unions are not under TIT
control Of the Knights Of Labor, and it il
only by some sort of adroit management
of circumstances that such things as thu
Reading railway strike occur. We re
call the utterance of one Of tn,
delegates to the Columbus Labor con
vention. TO the effect that. it would no
do for a tanner to manage the affairs of
typographical union, or gice persa.
Therein is the point The Knights o
Labor want to order thousands of work
ing-men to strike, not because of any
wrong to those same men but because
some other men somewhere else want Il
use them for a purpose.

The Republican issue for 1883 against
the Democrats will be narrowed down TO
protection and opposition TO the solid
South. AS to the former it is gratifying
to see that the clear common sense OF the
American people is already dealing with
the question Of tribute to monopoly in the
shape of import taxes. The result is
likely 10 be that people will conclude
that they are entitled to fair prices for
certain necessities Of life, instead Of pay
ing extra merely to foster Infant indus
tries" that took part in the centennial.
As to the alleged bulldozing Of the
colored Republican vote in the Southern
States, it is a most striking fact to illus
trate the characteristic humbug OF the
Republican party, that during all the
years Of its almost absolute power it did
nothing to relieve the oppressed colored
voter Of the South.
The plea now that the Republican col
ored vote is suppressed has not
evolved a single suggestion from Blaine,
Sherman OF any other leader as to a way
to remedy the evil, and still the Republi-
cans harp on the two old strings that can
only emit the hackneyed old tune that
will be the dead march Of their party.

The National Association of Wool
Manufacturers are coming up on the
line of the Presidents policy, as
they see that they want to put their pro-
ducts on q thousand markets instead Of
only on the home market. The way to
reach the desired result is, Of course, to
let them buy the wool In the markets Of
the world, just as other countries do,
otherwise they cannot compete, because
the raw material is put at a false price,
and the goods that compete VITA them
abroad are lower than the American
fabrics.
The claim that labor has in this matter
Is the natural right of the citizen to use
his skill to the best advantage, instead of
narrowing his work to the amount Of
product that can be made for the home
market.
